LOS ANGELES (AP)  Dozens of protesters rallied outside Los Angeles police headquarters Saturday in support of Christopher Dorner, the former LAPD officer and suspected killer of four who died after a shootout and fire this week at a mountain cabin following one of the biggest manhunts in recent memory.

Protesters told the Los Angeles Times (http://lat.ms/11Ndm6i ) they didn't support Dorner's deadly methods, but objected to police corruption and brutality, and believed Dorner's claims of racism and unfair treatment by the department. Many said they were angered by the conduct of the manhunt that led to Dorner's death and injuries to innocent bystanders who were mistaken for him.

Michael Nam, 30, who held a sign with a flaming tombstone and the inscription "RIP Habeas Corpus," said it was "pretty obvious" police had no intention of bringing Dorner in alive.

Even Charles Manson has his whack job supporters..I am glad the bastard is dead..can you imagine the circus if this had gone to trial..the leftists would have given him a parade and he probably would have been acquitted..who needs that..he’s a crispy critter and good riddance

There is no question that Dorner snapped and went off the deep end. His actions during the ten days demonstrated he had a hatred for cops, but compassion for civilians not connected to law enforcement.
The incident begs for a review of what really happened that caused LAPD to take away his livelihood and future. Was the incident involving the training officer part of a pattern, or a one-time he said, she said, event.
Cops protect their own and their favored officers. A fair and impartial review of all involved is the only thing that will put this unfortunate incident to rest, along with appropriate action if Dorner was indeed treated unfairly. If, in fact, the assertions in Dorners manifesto are even partially true, there is no way he could appeal outside the police department to get a fair and impartial review, short of the extreme measures of which were all now familiar.

This case will never be put to rest. It will probably die out from public exposure like the Rodney King case but will never be put to rest. I am no fan of the USA police forces as I believe that many of the people in the various services were/are would be bullies who now can be under letter of law. However, when an obviously deranged man or woman decides decides/chooses to kill/eliminate some other person including law persons I believe the law has a right if not responsibility to hastily remove that person from danger to anyone else. To argue that such a person deserves legal considerations is sophistry as to another persons right to live free from danger.

..and the reason that scumbag Dorner went to that ski area at Big Bear was because there was going to be a Law Enforcement Appreciation day where he planned to kill the families of police playing on the slopes

Good thing Dorner was such an inept dork or he could have done a lot more damage

Even Charles Manson has his whack job supporters..I am glad the bastard is dead..can you imagine the circus if this had gone to trial.

All I can think of is Ed Asner and Tookie Williams (Crips cofounder) circus. You are so right. Thank Goodness for Arnold Schwarzenegger or (it) would be still soaking off the Gov't teat or be back on the streets.

Based on his support, and yes I mean due to his Race, he could have hidden out in South L.A. until things cooled down and nobody would have been the wiser. He was the new OJ, kind of like Obama. He could do no wrong because be supposedly was wronged by the White Man and Reparations are a bitch.

He was inept, but he managed to drive to Big Bear on one of the few roads leading up there, Highway 39 I believe, and hide out for six days.

Whenever I used to drive up there I always saw CHP’s and local Sheriff's patrolling the highway. How they missed him until his Truck went up in flames is a mystery to me. Everyone living in Southern California was aware of the Vehicle and his description.

Every digital Freeway Road Sign had the description of his Vehicle posted. Too bad the LAPD didn't get the memo before they took out a few innocent Civilians because the Officers had no idea what a Gray Nissan Titan actually looks like.

Let’s see - a “White” Hispanic kills a Black thug in self defense and he must be strung up. On the other hand, a Black thug shot an innocent non-Black woman in the head and kills others who were not threats to him and he must be adored. Dear Jesus, come back soon.

My problem with this whole mess is, I keep seeing in my mind the 49+ bullet strikes in that BLUE TOYOTA TUNDRA. That and the guy in Riverside's pickup shot to hell. That is just part of the thing(s) that worry me. That and the San Francisco suburban POlice chief speech telling the world that the POlice there carry guns to “intimidate and oppress.”

Dorner reaped what he sowed. Those, in society, who are pro-Dorner are typically democrat voters. These who are pro-Dorner do not want to take responsibility for their own actions or deeds, and the democrats tell them when voting not to take responsibility for themselves or their actions. What is most disturbing is these people believe themselves to be all knowing of what is best for everyone, and therefore the lie of democrats offer them escape from reality. The victim-hood card is the banner of these people. The pay me for being a victim is their objective and their numbers are growing.

The right to protest is in existence only because a civilized people allow the protest card to exist. Existence with murderers and supporters of murderers is not a civilized society. Dorner became uncivilized. Uncivilized people will not cure societal ills, instead uncivilized people create societal ills. Democrats exploit these types of people for control of civilized people. Civilized people, in our nation, have an ace card. Civilized people will continue to prepare with their ace card. Should the civilized people be made to be outlaws by D.C. through removal of rights, then civilized will walk into the outlaw life. It is the nature of an armed civilized people.

His treatment was irrelevant in the analysis of the situation. Had he stayed within the bounds of the law, things may have been different. Instead, he decided to become a murderer. There is nothing in any aspect of this situation that deserves discussion, even the stupidity or incompetence of the LAPD in their actions. Those deserve a different discussion. Instead, we get comments like this

He is a highly trained person with specialized training! They will never find him!

He was fighting against injustice in the LAPD!

He is miles away from them, probably laughing at them!

He has them right where he wants them!

“If, in fact, the assertions in Dorners manifesto are even partially true, there is no way he could appeal outside the police department to get a fair and impartial review, short of the extreme measures of which were all now familiar.”

And so on.

In the end, he was just another deranged, violent liberal dipstick who killed innocent people then stumbled and tripped when the noose began tightening.

A 350 pound liberal a-hole who was going to truck around in Big Bear in the winter, covering his tracks in the snow, living under infra-red evading tarps, carrying cans of 50 cal sniper rife ammo with his Barrett slung over one shoulder and a manpad over the other, evading the law like Rambo, etc.

He was a stupid, fat, paranoid slob who didnt have the brainpower to figure out how to survive NORMALLY in a society created in the image of one HE advocated, if his idiotic manifesto was any indication. His manifesto was so lame it made The Unabombers manifesto look intelligent by comparison.

Well, I give him credit. At least he had two brain cells to rub together which caused his finger trigger to contract while the gun was pointed at his own head.
